I have been finding that some people are continuously devaluing suggestions for very niche reasons, and it's been going on for an estimate of two whole years. If you have suggested anything before, you would know one of them. The pull request simply adds a new category to the
README.md
file, which addresses the guidelines for how the good contributors of topics should respond.It's obvious that there may need to be some more guidelines or alterations, but besides that, I think the addition of a Replying Guidelines category would help people understand what they should and shouldn't do. If the guidelines are reinforced, the few people who attempt to pull out nonconstructive feedback intently will likely end up stopping.
